Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2004099830A1] An electrowetting module (20) comprises a fluid chamber (8) which contains a first fluid (A) and a second fluid (B), which are separated by an interface (14), and means to (16, 17) exert a force on at least one of the fluids to change the position and/or shape of the interface. By providing at least one of the fluids with a compound having a zero dipole moment in the gaseous phase, the performance of the module can be enhanced. For example the optical power of an electrowetting lens (30) can be increased.
